 ED. CITIzEN:-Csrlos' article referring to the (bottle) circumstances of the harshaw festIvit es on Christmas is really touching and our 6, mpathetic heart overtiows with pity when we try 10 imagine how aged he must have felt the day following.
 While at liars hRw we cazsd upon him from distance; to us he appeared man of a nRtCre prone to withstand the circumstances referred to: it may have been the frown he cast upon us, or hls easy reckless manner which made us gaze with awe upon the man and klndle The thought above referred to, It makes us almost feel hopeless as to the sue cess of the Y. M. c. T. U. of Harshaw and We are nearly forced to admit all humanity susceptible to circumstances. Harshaw by lamp light has ouite a cosmopolitan appearance and the hearty welcome We received made us long to remain. But there Is Gr end to every thing; so with our visit. We were | forced to return at an early hour in or der to catch train we dote upon. and with Harry pushing on the lines II is unnecessary to state We caught it. Crittenden is still trying to keep pace with the times and IS succeeding re- markedly well. The amount of mer- chRndise which the train leaves here | every night denotes business in our community and Is making the agent gray headed pOndenng how to store IL IF his 2x4 warehouse.
 Judge Vsnderlip, our new justice of the peace. had hIs first case Tuesday last and deported himself ID q most graceful manner.
 Manning, Smith & Go. are atpresent busily engaged in quarrying liine rock which they are shipping 10 the No | gales SmeltinR Co. They have also q llrae-t,ln in course of erection sgAl-Kil! soon be prepared to furnish the coun- try with first-class quality of lime. Send Col Smith bill for this ad | plsase).
 "A. B." has become reckless since | Caustmas. He has 90 far disguised himself ID a suit of new clothes that it | ia impossible t0 pass him by without | calling him Judge" we would not be | surprised # he should make an appear Rnce with an eye-Slas5 and care "a L. | Auglsise," m a short time and oGtshine "NiGc,' who is obliged 10 use a heel | slide in his efforts of dOnnIng his un- mentIon6h!ee.
 The mining outlook Tn thls vicinity | and HGrshaw Is tiattering. Assessment
 work being all done, an increase in ore shipments can be looked for. Messrs. l W. T. Lake S O.. lessees Of the Trench mine, are shipping considerable ore of 1 late.
 Washington Camp mines are also com | ing to the front. Dave Allen and James l .ff..rr Iur r-.. za~rarul oarlnn~a tka fu | ton ready for shipment. | Every one is on the 'Gui Yive" as to
 the Crttsuden smelter since Captain | Hsight has written from San Francisco ! shat he IS in good spirits; We have never | seen him otherwise and only hope 1t will | aid him in the erection of his shelter. | Mr. W. D. Renter met with a serious
 accident last Friday evening. We did
 uo' learn the particulars, but l. seems a | horse he was riding took fright and ran
 into bsrbed wire fence, unsegting its l rider and falling onto hun. In this con
 diuon he was found by Mr. Watkins | who extricated and took him home. l We understand Mir Renter IS improving
 and will soon be able to be around again.

 "A. E" in his last letter begged us 1 not 10 ask him any more questions, but We hope the Judge will pardon us II We l conclude ty proposing one query which has troubled some people n our neigh ! borhood as we'll as ourselves for some
